I'm gonna do it!

I've spent the last year, perhaps even longer, where I haven't had a single hour of not worrying. "Will I be a good actress?" "Will I even get into college?" "How will I afford to live?" Well, this morning I decided that I've had enough. I'm going to get into...

Anyone else sharing this negative thought?

There has been lots of chat among our fellow Union members about Casting Directors in Vancouver and it has led to a rather ugly thought. Some background: Prior to 2020, when auditions were 'in the room', I would get a callback about 15 - 20% of the time and...

Looking for the interview where Joseph Quinn is talking about how Eddie was the best character that he ever played.

Can somebody send me the link to the interview? I’m an Instagram editor and I make cheesy sad edits and I really want to put a clip of him in the edit saying “ he was the best character I ever played, it was everything an actor could’ve asked for”. Also if...
